Paxil (Seroxat) suicide case struck out by U.S. Court - but don't expect Bob Fiddaman to tell the whole - Donna Dietz v. GSK story !!

LexisNexis Mealeys Legal News - GSK Awarded Summary Judgment In Paxil Suicide Case: "GSK Awarded Summary Judgment In Paxil Suicide Case
ROME, Ga. - The manufacturer of Paxil's assertion that the learned intermediary doctrine bars a widow's claims that it is liable for her husband's April 2002 suicide was upheld by a federal judge on Dec. 9, after finding that the 11th Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals recently held that a plaintiff cannot prove proximate causation if the prescribing physician testifies that his or her decision to prescribe a drug would not have been altered by a stronger warning. (Donna Dietz v. SmithKline Beecham Corp., d/b/a GlaxoSmithKline, No. 07-CV-0077-RLV, N.D. Ga.). From Mealey's Litigation Report: Antidepressant Drugs"
